@interfluidity This is a bit strong, and slightly misses the point. Don't forget all those request and response headers which are also hidden away from public gaze; they can carry some nasty shit too. But we don't want to see all that because it is noise, and noise can be used to hide even more nasty stuff. The important thing is that you know you are talking to the server you want to be talking to.

@khleedril URLs are more elementary than request and response headers. one should learn how to share a link, even without a little button. familiarity with URLs is not mostly about observing "nasty shit". it's understanding the most basic physics of the information systems that structure our world.
